"Oh, hearing what you said, I thought you lived in the Forbidden City. Uncle Ge is in the backyard. We can hear him by shouting. Where did you find him? Besides, Uncle Ge was not at home last night. You haven't noticed it yet?" said the loudspeaker in a sarcastic tone.
The couple didn't really notice when Grandpa Ge went out. "Uncle, why aren't you sleeping at home? Are you annoyed by the noise made by the children? I don't let them make noise at night." Xiangyun's heart was pounding, knowing that these people coming was nothing serious.
Da Loudspeaker rolled his eyes and said it as if Uncle Ge didn't live at home because he disliked the child.
"I'm from the street office. Please bring out your household registration books and letters of introduction," Zhang Ren said to Zhuzi and his wife.
Xiangyun quickly took out the household registration booklet and letter of introduction from the cabinet and handed them to Zhang Ren. The couple stood there anxiously, glancing at Uncle Ge from time to time.
What does this mean? Do you want to drive them away? They don't want to. Life in the city is so easy. You can eat whatever you want and buy anything on the street. It's so prosperous. In the village, you can hardly see a car once in a while, but here, cars are everywhere. Uncle Ge is just an old man with no children. He has a house and a high pension, which is enough for the three of them to live on.
As long as they use the name of taking care of the old man, won’t all these be theirs in the future!
The couple looked at each other and saw the determination in their eyes. They said they would never go back to their hometown no matter what. If they moved in to own this house, wouldn't their salary be cheaper than others?
Zhang Ren took a look and returned the household registration booklet and the letter of introduction to them. "When are you planning to return home?"
"Comrade, we are not going to live in the countryside anymore. We are going to find some work in the city. My uncle has no children, and we want to take care of him until the end of his life." Zhuzi smiled innocently.
If we didn't know what they were going to do, we would have thought he was an honest man.
"I won't ask you to support me in my old age." Uncle Ge immediately objected. If you were to support him in his old age, it would be obvious that he was the one supporting their family.
"Uncle, you have no children, and we are your only relatives. We can't bear to see you alone and helpless. You see, we have been here for such a long time, and we have taken good care of you inside and outside the house. We don't worry about you at all. Just enjoy your old age with us and wait for the happiness to come!" Xiangyun said sincerely, as if she was thinking about Uncle Ge.
"Taking care of him?" The third brother touched the skin on Grandpa Ge's face. "Grandpa Ge used to have a chubby face. Since you came, the old man has become very thin. If this is considered taking care of him, then if you take care of him for another two months, you will have to go into prison?"
Zhuzi and Xiangyun looked a little uncomfortable, and in their hearts they scolded the third brother for meddling in other people's business, but they said, "My uncle loves our child very much, and secretly gave him some food when he had it. It's all our fault. Uncle should not do this again in the future. The child is close to you, and you have to take care of him yourself. You still have to enjoy the blessing of your grandson."
Zhang Ren has worked in the community for so many years, and he has seen many people who want to wipe out the whole family.
"Grandpa Ge's retirement is taken care of by our street. You have no blood relationship with him and do not have the obligation to support him. Of course, the old man's property has nothing to do with you. You are not residents of our street. Please pack up your things and leave here immediately." Zhang Ren's words were quite polite. It depends on whether they are sensible or not.
Obviously they can't do it so easily.
"Leader, look at what you said. He is our uncle. Although we are five generations apart, we are still relatives. How can we not be much better than outsiders? We can take care of our uncle in his old age and don't bother the street office." Xiangyun said hurriedly. When she heard that the property had nothing to do with them, how could it be related to them? If it had nothing to do with them, who would it have to do with? The old man had no relatives, so it should belong to whoever takes care of him.
